Stream/Game Build Upgrade

[Thalin]

Hey, I'm looking to get some help from people about which path to upgrade my pc in. I'm trying to decide between Ryzen 7 2700/x Intel i7-8700k. I want to stream and play games on pretty much only 1080p. I'm open to suggestions if there is anything else cheaper that could function really well. I plan on streaming fps games (Fortnite, Destiny 2, Anthem on realease, COD BO4, Battlefield games, Escape from tarkov, ETC) So if anyone could help me out that would be awesome!

R7 1700 should still be around $200, but that instead.

 

but what's your budget/country? If you plan on streaming you'll probably want an 8 core anyways.

I live in Canada so it's not such a big deal for me. I don't really have a budget yet but cheaper is always nicer to look at haha.

Canadian prices are sooo terrible.

Probably something like that

 

1050ti because your GPU pricing is still crazy, like $100 more for a 1060/RX 580

Also if you go X470 you might want to set up StoreMI, it's pretty neat tech.
